Remember

Sunday, April 26, 20261130am
📖 LUK.24.9-LUK.24.32
After the resurrection, Jesus’ followers struggle to believe what He had already promised. Their disappointment shows how easily pain can make us forget the Word that was meant to sustain us. We are called to remember what God has said and refuse to shrink Him to the size of our past hurt. When faith grows weary, Scripture leads us back to hope and helps us recognize Christ at work.
Key Points
1.
Remember what Jesus has said instead of allowing pain to make hope seem impossible.
2.
Do not downgrade God by interpreting his power through disappointment or natural thinking.
3.
Return to Scripture when faith is weary, and let the Word renew your remembrance.
4.
Receive the identity God gives rather than the labels people attempt to place on you.

We were warned that our words don’t just describe our lives; they help direct and shape them, and car…

Manage Your Mind

Bishop Terry L. Hill, Jr. · Oct 4, 2026

We were called to deeper stewardship by learning to manage ourselves before we try to manage what God places in our hands. From Philippians 2:1–8, we embraced that our minds function like an operating system—shaping our attitudes, assumptions, beliefs, intentions, and behaviors—and that faithful living requires a renewed way of thinking that matches God’s ownership of our lives. Philippians 2 shows Jesus as our template for a well-managed mind. We were challenged to think like Christ by reject…

Stir Up The Gift

Stir Up The Gift

Elder Gary Harvey · Sep 27, 2026

We were challenged to face the question God asks of every steward: “What did you do with what I gave you?” From 2 Timothy 1:6–7, we were reminded that stewardship is bigger than money—it includes our time, relationships, opportunities, influence, and the gifts God has entrusted to us. Faithfulness isn’t proven by busyness, applause, or visible activity, but by caring for the assignment God actually placed in our hands. We were called to recognize what God has entrusted to us and stop burying i…
